This is the general category of fuckery that goes on and on and doesn’t seem interested in stopping.

I wish I didn’t feel that
Dismissive of any problem of anyone sure in their status
Probably rich people still have problems
I can’t see them from here where I don’t have enough food
But, like,
What storm?
Your eternal love struggle storm?
I don’t think someone like you could understand what a real storm is
I don’t think you could know real madness
I don’t think you could know being unknown
You can’t know
What you’re experiencing is life, which has its shittyness
I don’t believe you’ve experienced anything like the storm that is my life in so long
I find myself saying
I’ll take your clothes, cash, cars, and homes
Just stop complaining
Ah, well, I’ll try not to get too
Cynical about the whole thing
Don’t mind me
You’re having the fun I wish I was having again
It’s hard to see
Everything is hard to see

When I was really sick
I thought I was writing the new Bible
Some competition I thought up between myself and the past
I can do better
I can do better
But, really, the only thing I preach is decentness to everything be it plant, animal, planet, sun, space
Maybe some extra love to throw in
And wouldn’t it be terrifying if I was some Paul?
Yikes, brother did not know when to shut his dang mouth
Also brothers didn’t know how to translate
Like dang try translating half this esoteric garbage
Note, most of it does translate into Japanese for reasons beyond my control
Oops I’m bilingual and cognitively the contents of a trash can and now speak sudolanguage
A sublanguage
Probably people can’t understand me anyways
It’s good to not be sick
But sick me is definitely more ambitious
Write Bible 2
Marry a famous person
Become prolific author
So ambitious
I wish just a bit that some of the work had paid off in some way
Though I’m fine to be the only one believing the things I do
It just really put me in my place for nothing to happen at all
My no where and nothi

Never tell the Sun I’m in love with the night sky
This dance of three
The day, the night, and me
That once the inbetween twilight is gone I am taken
Mr. Brightside and The Boy
Searching the sky for my planets
La Luna won’t be out tonight
Or she will, just past my time
I miss the starry sky in the summer when it doesn’t come out until I’m asleep
But I miss the Sun in winter when the nights are long
They keep me entertained until the day comes back
It’s this ever the same, ever changing, relationship
Day and night
Just like between the Sun, Moon, and Earth I could not choose
I cannot choose between night and day
I like having problems that don’t matter
Such as this
Pointless problems
I have so many actual problems without solutions
The sky tinged orange with the goodbye of the Sun
And immediately I look for Saturn.
Fickle heart
Mesmerized by light

Speaking to you in rushed tones
Because I’m not ready to say goodnight yet
Your evening rays, but for a moment
And unfair that I should have to say goodnight when I wasn’t done with you yet
Don’t remind me that I’ll soon be saying goodnight at 4:30pm
Still can’t figure it out
Something isn’t quite right
But it’s another one of those secrets I’ll keep
Ever I wish the day would last and I would see you and have my fill
Morning had better come
I’m waiting for it already
My Mr. Sun
太陽
Burning ball of fire
To tomorrow,
I miss you already

What would I do without the slight crazy I carry with me?
If I didn’t think the sun a friend I would feel alone
If I wasn’t connected to the moon and the planets I’d have such an empty existence
I couldn’t live without them
Which is why it’s them, you see
What’s more permanent than a planet?
The Moon?
The literal Sun?
To me anyways
Without them to make forever palatable I would cringe at songs claiming it
Humans don’t know the meaning of forever
Human forever seems to have an expiry around 7 years
It always runs out eventually
See I could tell my guinea pigs I’d be here forever because, I will be, in their life
But you never know when I could be proven wrong
So temporary, humans
So very breakable
But then
The unexplainable
The ghost of a dog from my childhood comes up
Maybe less impermanent than I know
It could have been her
And she walked by at that moment
You know how you’re all at once that 16/17 year old who wants their dog back?
Maybe we’re all as permanent and impermanent as everything in this universe
Which it could or couldn’t be
Maybe I’ll find people as permanent as you are Misty

It’s like I’m screaming from my sick bed
Somebody do something!
Except it’s more like I’m screaming it into a void
Constantly faced with my own ineffectuality
So many things that needed to be fixed generations ago
Things ingrained in our society
Like consumption
And poverty
And racism
Our disdain for nature
Our disdain for different
The ongoing genocide of indigenous people
The new kind of genocide against disabled people
Before we just sterilised them against their will,
Now we offer them “compassionate death” instead of a life living with disability in poverty
This sick human obsession with endings lives
Plants, insects, animals, fish, and fungi weren’t enough so they started killing eachother for kicks
When that wasn’t enough they decided to include the actual weather
How fun for them
And I’m stuck watching this happen while simultaneously sliding ever further into poverty
Keeping homelessness at bay
Starving in the process
Fuck
Fuck this world that makes it physically impossible to be disabled and live comfortably if you don’t have a following of fans and already have millions of dollars when it happens
I’m so frustrated
I’m so sick
I just want to be well enough to save the world
